Lab Activity
Name _Kaylin Carter_
Complete this activity individually to maintain social distancing, but feel free to discuss it
with your lab partner and work on each step together, checking your models with each
other to make sure you’re on the same page. You will each complete and hand-in your
own lab. It will be due by our next lab meeting.
II. Nucleotides and Complementary Base-pairing.
Use your textbook as a
resource to explore the models.
Observe two disassembled nucleotides
.
Please do not mark on the models.
1. What do the colors of the atoms represent?
Hydrogen = white, yellow = phosphorus, red = oxygen, blue = nitrogen, gray = carbon
2. Identify the phosphates, deoxyriboses and nitrogenous bases.
Locate the various
carbons of deoxyribose (e.g., which is the 5’, which is the 3’).
Do you have two
purines, two pyrimidines, or one of each?
One of each
3. Assemble your two individual nucleotides.
Find the 5’ and 3’-end of the nucleotides.
Base-pairing.
Observe two more nucleotides.
1. Create a G-C and an A-T base-pair.
These are known as the two Watson-Crick
base-pairs.
How do they differ?
How are they the same?
G-C base pairs have 3 hydrogen bonds while A-T have 2. Both base pairs have one
purine and one pyrimidine.
2. Note how the hydrogen bond acceptors/donors are involved in each base-pair.
3.
Are these base-pairs antiparallel or parallel?
antiparallel
4.
Non-Watson Crick base-pairs.
A-T and C-G are known as Watson-Crick base-pairs,
other pairings are possible and these are known as non-Watson-Crick base-pairs.
What are all ten possible unique base-pair combinations?
Complete the series in the
first column of the table below.
5. Populate the table below for these ten
base-pair
combinations and in the columns to
the right enter additional information you will now discover by assembling the base-
pairs.
As needed obtain additional nucleotides. Use the model to test out each of
these pairings and determine the following: in the second column record if the
hydrogen base-pairing of a combination (e.g. A-A) is
parallel or antiparallel
(if both
are possible, pick the one that results in more hydrogen bonds); record the
number
of hydrogen bonds
that can occur in its strongest form; indicate if the
base-pair
type
is it is a purine-purine (R-R), pyrimidine:pyrimidine (Y-Y), or purine:pyrimidine (R-
Y).

6. Compare the width of Watson-Crick base-pairs to non-Watson-Crick base-pairs that
allow antiparallel hydrogen bonding disrupt a B-DNA double helix? What is meant by
“pinch” and “bulge?”
A pinch is when 2 pyrimidines bond to each which makes it less than 2 nm wide and a
bulge is when 2 purines bond together, which is more than 2 nm wide. In Watson and
Crick base pairing, DNA is 2 nm wide.

Please help me make an abstract using the information below it is the result and discussion of the experiment, the abstract should contain 150 words. THANK YOU!
In the laboratory, the researchers identified the parts of the DNA and RNA structure. DNA structures compose of a nitrogenous base, the base pair joined by hydrogen bonds, a deoxyribose sugar, and a phosphate group. The deoxyribose sugar attaches to a phosphate group to form the double-helix backbone of the DNA. On the other hand, the deoxyribose sugar is attached to either one of the four nitrogenous bases. These are either the purines (adenine or guanine) containing two carbon-nitrogen rings and four nitrogen atoms or the pyrimidines (cytosine or thymine) containing one carbon-nitrogen ring and two nitrogen atoms (Purines vs. pyrimidines, 2022). Each purine is paired with a pyrimidine resulting in an equal total number for each as stated by Chargaff’s rule. Each pair is called the base pair joined by a weak hydrogen bond…
